“…Fallon et al(2020) identi ed the shared and unique networks for sensory and affective pain empathy. A much debated question is whether there is a possibility that the affective empathy ,to a signi cant degree, mediate empathy-driven altruism when empathy occurs (Piccinini & Schulz, 2019). Considering the relationship between different structures of empathy and prosocial behavior, the cognitive aspect of empathy ,compared to affective empathy, is potentially less conducive to promoting prosocial behavior (Santiesteban et al, 2020).…”

BackgroundThe pandemic of COVID-19 sets off public psychological crises and impacts social functioning. Prepandemic research has shown that as the mental resource wears out under long-term distress, empathy exhaustion will happen. While prosocial activities are positively linked to empathy, quantitative research on the pandemic's effect on empathy and prosocial willingness has been insu ciently examined.Prosocial behaviors are carried out during a life-threatening time to promote communication and encourage community members to survive emergencies such as food shortages and natural disasters. MethodsThis study examined the shifts in emotion, empathy and prosocial behaviors between the pre-pandemic and pandemic era in China. Before (N = 520, 11/21/2019-11/23/2019) and after (N = 570, 2/23/2020-2/24/2020) the COVID-19 pandemic, we explored an empathy-driven prosociality relationship through an online task and questionnaires with a total of 1,190 participants. Chi-square test, independent samples ttests, linear regression analysis and correlation analysis were used for the data characteristics comparisons between the pre-outbreak and outbreak peak era datasets. Mediation and moderation models were also computed.

“…Arah Respon pada positive feeling, seperti empati merupakan Altrusitik (Dewi, 2017). Seorang altruis selalu memiliki motivasi untuk bersikap altruistik, ingin selalu membantu orang lain (Piccinini & Schulz, 2019). Motivasi yang spontan tersebut muncul karena memiliki penyebab internal yang mengarah pada positive feeling (Gopalan et al, 2017), bagi seorang altruis untuk bertindak membantu orang lain, penyebab internal tidak mengarah pada egoistic motivation (egosentrisme) (Song & Kim, 2019).…”

“…From an evolutionary approach, altruism reflects "a behavior that is costly to the actor and beneficial to the recipient(s). Costs and benefits are defined on the basis of the lifetime direct fitness" [23**, p. 232] (see also [15,24,25]). Unlike in the economic approach, costs and benefits are not calculated within a short timeframe (e.g., within a given situation); rather, the behavior, Emphasizing costs in the consequentialist perspective seems remarkably different from the intentionalist definitions of altruism reviewed above.…”

The field of prosociality is flourishing, yet researchers disagree about how to define prosocial behavior and often neglect defining it altogether. In this review, we provide an overview about the breadth of definitions of prosocial behavior and the related concept of altruism. Common to almost all definitions is an emphasis on the promotion of welfare in agents other than the actor. However, definitions of the two concepts differ in terms of whether they emphasize intentions and motives, costs and benefits, and the societal context. In order to improve on the conceptual ambiguity surrounding the study of prosociality, we urge researchers to provide definitions, to use operationalizations that match their definitions, and to acknowledge the diversity of prosocial behavior.
